I am very much disappointed with Trump on this.
However, where Florida is concerned can you show that Trump proposed raising the age before the Florida law makers discussed it among themselves?
It seemed to me that Trump got the idea from them, not the other way around.
Either way, fuck Trumps gun grabbing ways and his attack on due process.

Trump was the one who ordered the creation of the law...I don't think he got the idea from them, but either way that's irrelevant.

And I think he did, can you show us who suggested the law first? The difference between you and I is that I'm not stating it as fact, you are. That is why I suggest you show us that Trump proposed such laws before Florida was talking about them.
It is very much relevant to your claims and what you are posting all over the place.
Either way, he did very publicly support such laws which of course would have had some influence in the Florida law passing.
You seem to be conflating Florida with The US too, please be more precise. I think that is one reason you are getting so much grief in talking about this.
He is now still pushing for taking your guns if you ever admitted you were sad. He is definitely pushing it where my 2020 vote comes, and a lot of people like me to. I won't support a gun grabber, I'd sooner see them hang for treason.
